Pakistan's defense minister says the government doesn't suspect terrorism in today's crash of a passenger plane that was about to land in Islamabad.
The crash killed all 152 people on board, including two U.S. citizens. The plane went down in cloudy and rainy weather.
Local TV footage showed twisted metal wreckage hanging from trees and scattered across the ground on a bed of broken branches.
Fire was visible and smoke rose from the scene as a helicopter hovered above.
The search effort was hampered by muddy conditions and smoldering wreckage that authorities were having trouble extinguishing by helicopter.
